Believe the closest thing to an aquatic living animal we have are polar bears. Their Latin names actually refer to this, Ursus maritimus. Or, 'sea bear.'
A polar bear would be marine, not aquatic.

Manatees and seals don't count?

What exactly are you trying to say?

Manatees and pineapeds are fully adapted to a water enviroment. A bear isn't still retaining fur and limbs.

Of course bears have retained fur and limbs.

Beavers are not only our closest semi-aquatic relatives, but they exhibit the only other example of building behaviors which can radically effect their environment.
